routine(n.)日常事務;例行公事;每天一定會做的事情mature(adj.)成熟的premature(adj.)過早的;不成熟的premature birth早產premature death早夭;提早死亡
A new study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine found that 60 minutes of resistance, strength or weight training per week can lower risks of early death by as much as 20 percent.
發表在《英國運動醫學雜誌》上的一項新研究發現,每週進行60分鐘的阻力、力量或重量訓練可降低提早死亡的風險,多達20%。
resistance(n.)阻力air resistance空氣的阻力weight training重量訓練lower(v.)降低;減少=reduce=decrease
The study, undertaken by researchers at Tokyo University in Japan, also found a correlation between strength training and a reduced risk of cancer, diabetes as well as cardiovascular disease.
這項由日本東京大學研究人員進行的研究還發現,力量訓練與降低罹患癌症、糖尿病和心血管疾病的風險有關。
undertake(v.)做;從事=do=conductcorrelation(n.)相互關係、聯繫、相關=connection=relation(ship)=linkdiabetes(n.)糖尿病cardiovascular disease心血管疾病
However, training for more than an hour a week was not found to decrease the risk further.
然而,這並不意味著每週訓練超過一小時就會進一步降低風險。
further(adv.)更進一步地
The researchers suggest that a combination of muscle building exercise (one hour per week) and aerobic exercise (around 150 minutes) may offer greater benefits for reducing the likelihood of premature death through heart disease, cancer or other factors.
研究人員建議,結合肌力訓練(每週1小時)和有氧運動(約150分鐘)可更有效降低因心臟病、癌症或其他原因提早死亡的機率。
aerobic(adj.)有氧的anaerobic(adj.)無氧的likelihood(n.)可能;可能性=possibility
The research findings are based on a meta-analysis of 16 previous studies on the potential advantages of muscle-building exercise.
這份新研究針對過去16項關於肌力訓練益處的研究進行後設分析,統整出結果。
be based on…根據;以…為基礎=be founded onmeta-analysis後設分析metaverse元宇宙advantage(n.)好處=benefit
All of them followed adults who had no major health problems for at least two years and evaluated aerobic as well as muscle-strengthening activities.
所有的研究都追蹤了至少有兩年沒有重大健康問題的成年人,並評估他們從事的有氧和肌力訓練運動。
evaluate(v.)評估;衡量=assess
Lead study author Dr. Haruki Momma said the findings are not without their limitations.
研究主要作者Haruki Momma博士說,研究發現並非沒有侷限。
limitation(n.)限制;侷限
First and foremost, the meta-analysis covered only a small number of studies, sourced from only two databases.
首先最重要的是,後設分析僅涵蓋少數研究,來源只有兩個資料庫。

Second, the included studies assessed muscle-strengthening activities using a self-reported questionnaire or the interview method.
其次,納入的研究使用受試者自我評估的問卷或訪談法評估肌力訓練。
a self-reported questionnaire自我評估的問卷
Moreover, as most of the studies were conducted in the United States, the ability to generalize the findings is limited.
此外,由於大多數的研究是在美國進行的,因此歸納研究結果的能力有限。
conduct(v.)(正式)進行generalize(v.)概括;歸納limited(adj.)有限的;侷限的
According to the recommendation by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, people need to engage in up to 150 minutes of exercise every week to help maintain health.
美國疾病管制與預防中心(CDC)建議人們每週從事長達150分鐘的運動,以幫助保持健康。
recommendation(n.)推薦the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention美國疾病管制與預防中心(CDC)engage in 參與、從事、投入
Other than increasing longevity, strength training has been found to improve bone density, boost basal metabolic rate and enhance flexibility.
除了延年益壽,其他研究發現力量訓練也可以改善骨密度、提高基礎代謝率和增強柔軟度。
